Clear the List 2026: Help Us Support Local Teachers!

Help local teachers start the school year with the classroom supplies they need.

By Katlyn Joseph, Publisher of Macaroni KID SW Boston July 23, 2026

Macaroni KID SW Boston Presents

Help Us #ClearTheList!

Let’s come together to support local teachers and help them start the school year with classrooms full of the supplies their students need.

Every year, educators spend their own money on books, classroom supplies, educational resources, cleaning products, organizational tools, and countless extras that make their classrooms special.

Macaroni KID SW Boston is collecting classroom wish lists from teachers throughout our community and sharing them with families, businesses, and neighbors who would love to help.

A big thank-you to The Little Gym of Medway, the proud sponsor of our 2026 #ClearTheList campaign! Their support is helping us celebrate local teachers, share classroom wish lists, and bring our community together to support students and educators across the area.

It’s Easy

How #ClearTheList Works

1. Teachers submit their classroom wish lists.

Local educators send us a publicly accessible Amazon, Target, Walmart, DonorsChoose, or other classroom wish list.

2. We add each teacher to this guide.

Wish lists are organized by town so families can easily find teachers and schools in their community.

3. Community members shop the lists.

Purchase one item, several items, or help clear an entire classroom list.

4. We spread the word.

Share the guide with friends, family, parent groups, school organizations, and local businesses.
